Lots of things I like

Can't sleep, late at night but not super tired. Neighbors stay up talking late and can hear them through the too-thin windows that don't quite close. I've been using the Ambiance app on my iPhone to get through most nights but tonight didn't quite cut it. So, since it's late, I'm just going to list some things that consistently make me happy.

wilco.

any sportscenter anchor calling a home run ball.

the last 30 seconds of Conan O'Brien's monologue.

differently.abled.punctuation.

russell and the sports guy's twitter feeds.

any biography. you could give me the biography of someone who spent 68 years doing nothing but eating grapes and I'd find it fascinating.

any blogs by people i like.

riding my bike next to the ocean.

Minnesota- all of it, the winter, the humidity, the friends, the family, it all makes sense to me.

the song "I'm Not Sleeping" by the counting crows.

seeing live music, and especially the thought of the phish festival over halloween.

Madison, but mostly the "mad city" shirt I own.

new friend requests on facebook.

anything from topo ranch.

walking zoe in the morning, coffee in hand with JP.

raaaaaaaaaaandy.

crappy 80s rom coms on cable on the weekend.

manny ramirez. I know he cheated. but he's so likable.

san francisco weekend mornings.

crisis. of any kind. as long as it's not mine. this rhymes. so did that- wait it's over.

the. cubs. in. first. place.

and their inevitable collapse.

the water- ocean, lakes, rivers, whatever. it's cathartic for me.

and you. thanks.
